      Was just having a conversation about the phrase “selling out”. Seems you don’t hear it used much anymore. I reckon that’s because the concept is seen as more of a life skill now than some despicable practice. But I feel sure it would be argued I’m just jealous of those sweet living wages.

      What about open source jobs and funding? Since it seems like most of them come from either FAANG or government unless my research is wrong.
